Shoulder Mount Theory: Recharger From: "Teo Adams" <snatcheroo@home.com> To: <halo@bungie.org> Subject: Shoulder mount theory Date: Wed, 12 Apr 2000 08:27:11 -0700 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Priority: 3 (Normal) Importance: Normal I took a look at the shoulder mount theories after mine (great theories by the way) and decided to take another look at the box. On the front of it there is an abnormal shaped hole, rectangular in shape. This made me think of this: Due to the fact that a futuristic suit like this needs something to power such things as communications, infra-red viewing (if any), a visor HUD, or even a binocular type zooming feature, the suits energy would eventually drain. Perhaps, the box could be a socket that a marine could hook into somesort of recharging device with. This in mind, the rectangular hole and the lines connecting all of the holes could be explained. If you look at the sockets on the back of a computer or even modern electrical sockets you'll notice they are shaped such that you can only plug things into them one way. The rectangular hole would prevent a hurried marine from plugging in wrong and frying his suit (and possibly himself in the process). The lines connecting the holes could be a way to hold the plug in nice and snug. This makes the most sense to me after rereading the other theories but who knows.
